HIGH SCHOOL OPPORTUNITIES

WC Your Future was developed to help students see a link between what they are learning and their future work.

One high-interest area in our community is financial literacy. There is a need for students to understand how to manage and maximize their resources, so they are equipped to support the lifestyles they desire as they emerge into adulthood. Our ninth grade students take a semester of financial literacy. Additionally, we provide a thread of learning experiences at all levels to support student acquisition of skills and deep understanding in the area of financial literacy.

We are committed to partnering with members of our community to support our students in areas outlined in our Portrait of a Graduate. Our five statements that help us stay rooted in our WHY include:

Our students:

• Create the lives they desire
• Turn ideas into action
• Pursue personal happiness and joy
• Do what is right even when no one is watching
• Are resilient in the face of challenge

For example, as part of the West Clermont High School Explorers Program, students experience different career pathways including medical, leadership, education, trades, computer science and aviation.

We continue to grow our Career-Based Learning opportunities. Many of our students, in addition to meeting their graduation requirements, participate in internships or pre-apprenticeship programs along with wage-earning jobs.

We remain dedicated to growing community connected learning opportunities in our core and elective courses as well.
